Tom Able-Green (TAG) and Mat Pullen will be discussing how you can utilise distance professional learning in these unprecedented times. As staff are exploring what avenues to explore in terms of continuity of learning, it is important to see the bigger, long term approach that can develop as a result. Knowing what you don’t know is important in helping you decide an approach going forward.
iPad has changed the way we work, play and learn and so with learning no longer confined to the classroom or traditional classroom hours, schools are re-evaluating their learning environments to accommodate an at-home, virtual learning experience.
The ability to make this fully functional and effective falls squarely on school administrators, curriculum designers and teachers. With the right tools in place, virtual learning can be as intuitive and engaging as in-person. With Apple technology becoming increasingly popular in the education space, the iPad seem to be the go to device for both remote learning and in the classroom.
In this webinar we explain how it’s not only possible to fully support remote learning, but help students and teachers alike thrive and stay connected all from the comfort of home with iPads whilst ensuring success in the classroom too.
During these unusual times businesses, schools, colleges and universities are not functioning as ‘normal’ with major disruption to most areas. Many buildings are now closed to deliveries and the staff that would traditionally receipt and configure goods and services to meet the specific needs of an institution are now working from home.
Having recently moved into a new secure facility with increased warehousing and engineering capacity we have looked at ways we can support the operational and logistics requirements for businesses, schools, colleges or universities, providing a degree of normality to a specific area of your establishment.
Since Lockdown, you may have realised how reliant you were on accessing your data on your local network. Whether you’re a charity, business, school or university, odds are you’ll have a file server on premise or a collection of cloud storage providers dotted around. Join our webinar to discover a means of bringing these locations together into a single place for internal and external access regardless of where they are and with no need for other remote access technologies. See how you can modernize your way of working in a way that makes your users and admin’s lives significantly easier!
If you’ve worked with Group Policy and Active Directory before, you’ll appreciate the sheer power they can provide you as admins. However, the benefits of these platforms are typically limited to within the four walls of your office. Join us as we walk you through your device and user management, regardless of their location using Microsoft Intune.
Since the coronavirus lockdown began, we have seen a number educational establishments switch to remote learning with ease. Malton School is a fine example, an establishment that has been able to ensure their pupils can continue their studies using a 1:1 iPad scheme. Headteacher Rob Williams commented…
“Thanks to our iPad scheme the school has been able to offer a high-quality learning experience from day one of the lockdown. Every student already had an iPad, paid by parents on a monthly basis, using pupil premium funding to support disadvantaged children, and we were able to ensure that they all had access to the internet, using dongles
